if you have LOTR on DVD it is definately illegal as it is not due for release yet and it will be released here in New Zealand first!
I was reading the other day on a NZ web site that it will be released in several different forms at different times one will be the normal version but with a trailer for the Twin Towers (the next in the trilogy) on the DVD (it will also be the first lok at the Twin Towers as the theatres will not be showing this trailer till later in the year!) and later they will be releasing an extended version with new scenes that were not in the theatre release.
they were also going to have one of the versions with 4 DVD disks that had indepth behind the scenes looks, interviews with peter jackson and crew and look at some of his other movies aswell
I was reading the other day on a NZ web site that it will be released in several different forms at different times one will be the normal version but with a trailer for the Twin Towers (the next in the trilogy) on the DVD (it will also be the first lok at the Twin Towers as the theatres will not be showing this trailer till later in the year!) and later they will be releasing an extended version with new scenes that were not in the theatre release.
they were also going to have one of the versions with 4 DVD disks that had indepth behind the scenes looks, interviews with peter jackson and crew and look at some of his other movies aswell
